Mercedes-Benz CLK 550
W213 (all models incl. AMG, 4 Matic)
Would recommend the front kit #503316-2 J only $380 (both sides).
Provides both Camber and Caster for the 1st time. Precise adjustment up to 1.5 degrees extra Positive or Negative.
More than enough to resolve most premature tire wear issues (5 times the adjustment range of the inaccurate one offset position fluted bolts - which are not available for the C213)
Replaces upper 4 wishbone bushings. Easy fit on vehicle without arm removal. Bush extraction tool supplied. No special tools needed!
Another feature - with this KMAC design the security of not replacing the existing high strength alloy OEM arms with welded fabricated arms.
Similar kit for the rear replaces the lower arm inner bushings providing also precise (single wrench adjustment - accurately under load direct on alignment rack). Also up to 1.5 degrees positive or negative Camber.
Extra rear Toe adjustment is also included doubling the range to cater for the new rear Camber facility. Bush extraction tools included.
Providing front and rear kits for other than showroom height conditions. Fixing it right the 1st. time, no more ongoing trips to dealers or alignment shops or constantly changing tire brands.
Now allowing to adjust tire contact angles, spread load more evenly (excess edge load can lead to higher impact, ruptured side walls).
Day to day commuting encountering high cambered roads, wheel squat through load carrying or lowering, fitting wide profile tires/wheels, curb knock damage with Caster adjustment allowing the ability to correctly resolve steering pull.
Also see web site re front "lower arm" adjustable bushings - performance/track days #502816 K $480. Along with rear uprated bushings for the 6 multi link rear arms - less twitch, flex, loss of traction. Especially when applying power to lane change / overtake #502628 K $480
Delivery $40 one kit ($20 each extra)
